Blair suffered ‘frustration’ with power limits
Officials in Jerusalem familiar with the work of the Quartet say former British prime minister Tony Blair has written a letter to United Nations chief Ban Ki-moon to confirm his resignation.
Blair took the office in 2007 with great promise, put in charge of helping develop the Palestinian economy and institutions. But he struggled in the position, and one official says there had been “frustration” over his limited authorities.
